Vietnam court upholds tycoon’s death sentence for $12bn bank fraud



A Vietnamese court has upheld the death sentence of a billionaire real estate tycoon—behind the country’s biggest case of bank fraud. Truong My Lan had appealed against the ruling, but judges say her crimes carried serious consequences and that they saw no reason to reduce her penalty for embezzlement and bribery.

  1. ☪ Sayyidna Abu al-Dahdah presented himself before the Holy Prophet and asked him: 'O Messenger of Allah, may my father and mother be sacrificed to you, does Allah Almighty need loan 💲from us, although He is Ghani غنی ، the one who needs no loan?'

    The Holy Prophet 🤑said: 'Yes, Allah Almighty does wish to grant you entry in Paradise through it.' Hearing this, Sayyidna Abu al-Dahdah said. 'Let the Messenger of Allah stretch his hand forward.' He stretched his hand forward. Now Abu al-Dahdah started saying: 'I own two date farms. I own nothing except these. I give the loan of these two farms of mine to Allah Almighty.' << Tafsir Surah Al-Baqarah – 245 >>🌙
